About Cristina 

My Personal Story (a very short version) 

Hi there!

I am a Brazilian born and Australian at heart woman, who is passionate about inspiring and supporting women to live authentic, mindful and meaningful lives – one conversation at a time.

In my past life I used to work as a Pharmacist, until the return of Saturn pulled me out of my comfortable and happy life in Brazil.

This resulted in me making one of the biggest changes in my life. It was in 2009 that I decided to answer my soul’s calling to travel across the sea and explore this beautiful land down under.

I did travel far, not only geographically but also within myself. This experience of discovering uncharted territories transformed me from the inside out.

In needing to find my own answers, strength and soul stamina, I had to also expand my ideas and understanding of who I was, as a woman and as a human being.

Today, I live and work in Sydney with my husband Barry.
